Shakespeare and the Law


A scene from last weekend's Shakespeare and the Law conference at the University of Chicago Law School. In addition to the presentation of academic papers, there was also some acting--in this scene, Judge Posner, playing Polonius, is lying dead off to the left. Martha Nussbaum, playing the queen, is standing next to a student playing Hamlet, and Supreme Court Justice Breyer, who is playing the king's ghost.

Our Literal Speed



Went with some other contemporary art fans to see some of Our Literal Speed, which tried to make art history and criticism into art. The example we saw involved "Rosalind Krauss", "Yve Alain Bois" and others lip-syncing a pre-recorded panel discussion about Picasso and Braque.
